مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ وَٱلذَّٰرِيَٰتِ ذَرْوًۭا ۝١

By the winds which scatter dust,

فَٱلْحَٰمِلَٰتِ وِقْرًۭا ۝٢

which carry clouds laden with water,

فَٱلْجَٰرِيَٰتِ يُسْرًۭا ۝۳

which then smoothly speed along,

فَٱلْمُقَسِّمَٰتِ أَمْرًا ۝٤

and execute the great task of apportioning (rainfall):

إِنَّمَا تُوعَدُونَ لَصَادِقٌۭ ۝٥

surely what you are being warned against is true,

وَإِنَّ ٱلدِّينَ لَوَٰقِعٌۭ ۝٦

and the Judgement shall doubtlessly take place.

وَٱلسَّمَآءِ ذَاتِ ٱلْحُبُكِ ۝۷

By the heaven with its numerous forms:

إِنَّكُمْ لَفِى قَوْلٍۢ مُّخْتَلِفٍۢ ۝۸

surely you are at variance (about the Hereafter);

يُؤْفَكُ عَنْهُ مَنْ أُفِكَ ۝۹

though only those who are averse to the Truth will turn away from (believing in it).

قُتِلَ ٱلْخَرَّٰصُونَ ۝١۰

Doomed are the conjecturers

ٱلَّذِينَ هُمْ فِى غَمْرَةٍۢ سَاهُونَ ۝١١

who are steeped in ignorance and heedlessness.

يَسْـَٔلُونَ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلدِّينِ ۝١٢

They ask: “When will the Day of Judgement be?”

يَوْمَ هُمْ عَلَى ٱلنَّارِ يُفْتَنُونَ ۝١۳

It will be the Day when they shall be scourged by the Fire

ذُوقُوا۟ فِتْنَتَكُمْ هَٰذَا ٱلَّذِى كُنتُم بِهِۦ تَسْتَعْجِلُونَ ۝١٤

(and be told): “Taste your ordeal! This is what you were seeking to hasten.”

إِنَّ ٱلْمُتَّقِينَ فِى جَنَّٰتٍۢ وَعُيُونٍ ۝١٥

As for the God-fearing, they shall be in the midst of gardens and fountains,

ءَاخِذِينَ مَآ ءَاتَىٰهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ ۚ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَبْلَ ذَٰلِكَ مُحْسِنِينَ ۝١٦

joyously receiving what their Lord will have granted them. Verily they did good works before (the coming of this Day):

كَانُوا۟ قَلِيلًۭا مِّنَ ٱلَّيْلِ مَا يَهْجَعُونَ ۝١۷

they used to sleep but little by night,

وَبِٱلْأَسْحَارِ هُمْ يَسْتَغْفِرُونَ ۝١۸

and would ask for forgiveness at dawn,

وَفِىٓ أَمْوَٰلِهِمْ حَقٌّۭ لِّلسَّآئِلِ وَٱلْمَحْرُومِ ۝١۹

and in their wealth there was a rightful share for him who would ask and for the destitute.

وَفِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ءَايَٰتٌۭ لِّلْمُوقِنِينَ ۝٢۰

There are many Signs on earth for those of sure faith,

وَفِىٓ أَنفُسِكُمْ ۚ أَفَلَا تُبْصِرُونَ ۝٢١

and also in your own selves. Do you not see?

وَفِى ٱلسَّمَآءِ رِزْقُكُمْ وَمَا تُوعَدُونَ ۝٢٢

And in heaven is your provision and also what you are being promised.

فَوَرَبِّ ٱلسَّمَآءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ إِنَّهُۥ لَحَقٌّۭ مِّثْلَ مَآ أَنَّكُمْ تَنطِقُونَ ۝٢۳

So, by the Lord of the heaven and the earth, this is certainly true, as true as the fact of your speaking.

هَلْ أَتَىٰكَ حَدِيثُ ضَيْفِ إِبْرَٰهِيمَ ٱلْمُكْرَمِينَ ۝٢٤

(O Prophet), did the story of Abraham's honoured guests reach you?

إِذْ دَخَلُوا۟ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالُوا۟ سَلَٰمًۭا ۖ قَالَ سَلَٰمٌۭ قَوْمٌۭ مُّنكَرُونَ ۝٢٥

When they came to him, they said: “Peace”; he said: “Peace also be to you; (you seem to be) a group of strangers.”

فَرَاغَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ فَجَآءَ بِعِجْلٍۢ سَمِينٍۢ ۝٢٦

Then he went back to his family and brought a fat roasted calf

فَقَرَّبَهُۥٓ إِلَيْهِمْ قَالَ أَلَا تَأْكُلُونَ ۝٢۷

and laid it before them, saying: “Will you not eat?”

فَأَوْجَسَ مِنْهُمْ خِيفَةًۭ ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا تَخَفْ ۖ وَبَشَّرُوهُ بِغُلَٰمٍ عَلِيمٍۢ ۝٢۸

Then he became afraid of them. They said: “Fear not,” and announced to him the good news of (the birth of) a boy endowed with knowledge.

فَأَقْبَلَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُۥ فِى صَرَّةٍۢ فَصَكَّتْ وَجْهَهَا وَقَالَتْ عَجُوزٌ عَقِيمٌۭ ۝٢۹

So hearing his wife went forth shouting. She struck her face and exclaimed: “A barren old woman am I.”

قَالُوا۟ كَذَٰلِكِ قَالَ رَبُّكِ ۖ إِنَّهُۥ هُوَ ٱلْحَكِيمُ ٱلْعَلِيمُ ۝۳۰

They said: “So has your Lord said (that you shall have a boy). Surely He is Most Wise, All-Knowing.”

۞ قَالَ فَمَا خَطْبُكُمْ أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُرْسَلُونَ ۝۳١

Abraham said: “Envoys (of Allah), what is your errand?”

قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّآ أُرْسِلْنَآ إِلَىٰ قَوْمٍۢ مُّجْرِمِينَ ۝۳٢

They replied: “Behold, we have been sent to a wicked people

لِنُرْسِلَ عَلَيْهِمْ حِجَارَةًۭ مِّن طِينٍۢ ۝۳۳

that we may unleash a shower of clay-stones

مُّسَوَّمَةً عِندَ رَبِّكَ لِلْمُسْرِفِينَ ۝۳٤

marked by your Lord upon those who go beyond the limits.”

فَأَخْرَجْنَا مَن كَانَ فِيهَا مِنَ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۝۳٥

Then We evacuated there from all the believers

فَمَا وَجَدْنَا فِيهَا غَيْرَ بَيْتٍۢ مِّنَ ٱلْمُسْلِمِينَ ۝۳٦

– and We did not find there any, apart from a single house of Muslims –

وَتَرَكْنَا فِيهَآ ءَايَةًۭ لِّلَّذِينَ يَخَافُونَ ٱلْعَذَابَ ٱلْأَلِيمَ ۝۳۷

and We left therein a Sign for those who fear the grievous chastisement.

وَفِى مُوسَىٰٓ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَٰهُ إِلَىٰ فِرْعَوْنَ بِسُلْطَٰنٍۢ مُّبِينٍۢ ۝۳۸

There is also a Sign for you in the story of Moses when We sent him with a clear authority to Pharaoh.

فَتَوَلَّىٰ بِرُكْنِهِۦ وَقَالَ سَٰحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌۭ ۝۳۹

But Pharaoh turned away, showing arrogance on account of his power, and said (about Moses): “He is either a sorcerer or a madman.”

فَأَخَذْنَٰهُ وَجُنُودَهُۥ فَنَبَذْنَٰهُمْ فِى ٱلْيَمِّ وَهُوَ مُلِيمٌۭ ۝٤۰

So We seized him and his hosts, and cast them into the sea. He became an object of much blame.

وَفِى عَادٍ إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمُ ٱلرِّيحَ ٱلْعَقِيمَ ۝٤١

There is also a Sign for you in (the story of) Ad, when We let loose upon them an ominous wind

مَا تَذَرُ مِن شَىْءٍ أَتَتْ عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا جَعَلَتْهُ كَٱلرَّمِيمِ ۝٤٢

that left nothing that it came upon without reducing it to rubble.

وَفِى ثَمُودَ إِذْ قِيلَ لَهُمْ تَمَتَّعُوا۟ حَتَّىٰ حِينٍۢ ۝٤۳

There is also a Sign for you in (the story of) Thamud. They were told: “Enjoy yourselves for a while.”

فَعَتَوْا۟ عَنْ أَمْرِ رَبِّهِمْ فَأَخَذَتْهُمُ ٱلصَّٰعِقَةُ وَهُمْ يَنظُرُونَ ۝٤٤

But they brazenly disobeyed their Lord's command, and then a sudden chastisement overtook them while they looked on.

فَمَا ٱسْتَطَٰعُوا۟ مِن قِيَامٍۢ وَمَا كَانُوا۟ مُنتَصِرِينَ ۝٤٥

They were unable even to stand up or protect themselves.

وَقَوْمَ نُوحٍۢ مِّن قَبْلُ ۖ إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا۟ قَوْمًۭا فَٰسِقِينَ ۝٤٦

Before all these We destroyed the people of Noah: they were a wicked people.

وَٱلسَّمَآءَ بَنَيْنَٰهَا بِأَيْي۟دٍۢ وَإِنَّا لَمُوسِعُونَ ۝٤۷

And heaven – We made it with Our Own Power and We have the Power to do so.

وَٱلْأَرْضَ فَرَشْنَٰهَا فَنِعْمَ ٱلْمَٰهِدُونَ ۝٤۸

And the earth – We spread it out, and how well have We smoothed it!

وَمِن كُلِّ شَىْءٍ خَلَقْنَا زَوْجَيْنِ لَعَلَّكُمْ تَذَكَّرُونَ ۝٤۹

And of everything We have created pairs; perhaps you will take heed.

فَفِرُّوٓا۟ إِلَى ٱللَّهِ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ ۝٥۰

Flee, therefore, to Allah. Surely I am a clear warner to you from Him;

وَلَا تَجْعَلُوا۟ مَعَ ٱللَّهِ إِلَٰهًا ءَاخَرَ ۖ إِنِّى لَكُم مِّنْهُ نَذِيرٌۭ مُّبِينٌۭ ۝٥١

and do not set up any deity with Allah. Surely I am a clear warner to you from Him.

كَذَٰلِكَ مَآ أَتَى ٱلَّذِينَ مِن قَبْلِهِم مِّن رَّسُولٍ إِلَّا قَالُوا۟ سَاحِرٌ أَوْ مَجْنُونٌ ۝٥٢

Thus has it been (in the past): never did a Messenger come to the nations that preceded them but they said: “(He is) a sorcerer, or a mad-man.”

أَتَوَاصَوْا۟ بِهِۦ ۚ بَلْ هُمْ قَوْمٌۭ طَاغُونَ ۝٥۳

Have they arrived at a common understanding concerning this? No; but they are a people given to transgression.

فَتَوَلَّ عَنْهُمْ فَمَآ أَنتَ بِمَلُومٍۢ ۝٥٤

So turn your attention away from them; you shall incur no blame.

وَذَكِّرْ فَإِنَّ ٱلذِّكْرَىٰ تَنفَعُ ٱلْمُؤْمِنِينَ ۝٥٥

Do, however, keep exhorting them; for exhortation benefits those endowed with faith.

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ ٱلْجِنَّ وَٱلْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ ۝٥٦

I created the jinn and humans for nothing else but that they may serve Me;

مَآ أُرِيدُ مِنْهُم مِّن رِّزْقٍۢ وَمَآ أُرِيدُ أَن يُطْعِمُونِ ۝٥۷

I desire from them no provision, nor do I want them to feed Me.

إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلرَّزَّاقُ ذُو ٱلْقُوَّةِ ٱلْمَتِينُ ۝٥۸

Surely Allah is the Bestower of all provision, the Lord of all power, the Strong.

فَإِنَّ لِلَّذِينَ ظَلَمُوا۟ ذَنُوبًۭا مِّثْلَ ذَنُوبِ أَصْحَٰبِهِمْ فَلَا يَسْتَعْجِلُونِ ۝٥۹

The wrong-doers shall receive a portion of the chastisements as their fellows (of yore). So let them not rush Me.

فَوَيْلٌۭ لِّلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِن يَوْمِهِمُ ٱلَّذِى يُوعَدُونَ ۝٦۰

Woe, then, betide those who disbelieved in that Day of theirs which they are being asked to hold in dread.
